Answer 1

The Science of Getting Rich.

These other people... some of them don't have a clue. Listen to me honey. The best thing is currency trading, but if you are US citizen you will have trouble with this, and don't even go there.

If you are EU, do it! Try Jyske Private Banking, if you need a weblink hit me up. Otherwise, for books.... try The Energy of Money, What the Bleep Do We Know?, and of the rich dad poor dad series, like Guide to Investing (but always check his sources, he's not the best, but just a general guide). Some dispute his accuracy with regard to Securities. The 48 Laws of Power is great... for romance try the The Art of Seduction, same authors and press... for money, try Success Mastery with NLP to push back negative thoughts, and also The Secret, Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting, The Gifted Boss, that is good for now. Good luck you will do well.

Answer 2

May I suggest two.

Investing for Dummies (not saying your a dummy, just it's very explanitive and information rich)

The Prayer of Jabez by Bruce Wilkonson. Yes it is a religious book, but it helps you understand how we should look at wealth. It's not just having more money to spend, but understanding that those who make their own wealth (unlike Ms. Hilton) don't go spending like a child in a candy store and know the responsiblity of wealth.

Answer 3

A 13.7 billion 12 months previous universe, a 4.5 billion 12 months previous earth, God required as author, and evolution can all be nicely matched. only a minority of Christians take the six days of Genesis as literal 24 hour classes. they could be interpreted as stages contained in the ingenious technique of the universe of undetermined length. regardless of each little thing, the solar and the moon were created on the fourth day. I really have examine some eye-catching articles on procedures created through scientists and engineers in which through "organic determination" both hardware or software is designed to evolve to larger states of complexity and performance. besides the indisputable fact that, it really is had to be conscious that those evolving structures were designed through impressive medical and engineering minds. they did not merely ensue. So there is not any incompatibility between smart layout and evolution. in reality, the 2d calls for the first. ---

Answer 4

Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki and Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker

Answer 5

"Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill It's Classic.

"The Richest Man in Babylon" By George S. Clayson.

They make all trainee stockbrokers read these two, and a few other more "sales" oriented classics. But these two books have been read by every guy and gal on Wall Street. We have passages memorized.
